The MABA (muscarinic antagonist and β agonist) concept has the potential to simplify this complexity while increasing the efficacy of both pharmacologies. In this article, we report the outcome of our solid-state driven back-up program that led to the discovery of the MABA compound .

Here, we report the and characterization of the anti-inflammatory effects of CHF6297, a novel potent and selective p38α inhibitor designed for inhalation delivery as a dry powder formulation. CHF6297 has been proven to inhibit p38α enzymatic activity with sub-nanomolar potency (IC = 0.

TRPA1 is primarily localized to a subpopulation of primary sensory neurons of the trigeminal, vagal, and dorsal root ganglia. This subset of nociceptors produces and releases the neuropeptide substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which mediate neurogenic inflammation.
